Spher are 3D interactive sculptures resulting from the exploration of line drawings with vertex shaders and spherical coordinates. A sculpture is formed by many lines being drawn simultaneously while folding and unfolding following patterns on the surface of a sphere.

For a full experience read the instructions and export a high resolution image of your favorite perspectives.


Instructions:

- use the mouse to navigate (zoom, pan and drag)
- press 'c' to switch between multiple camera angles
- press 'b' to pause the animation
- press 'p' to download the current view it in a custom resolution

Harmonium #1

Experiments in 3D, moiré, monochrome and flipping planes.

Around 600.000 pixels, all black planes rotating on their own axis. 
The angle of rotation will define the contrast and create different images over time.

Zoom in and move around to explore each pixel and its movement in detail.

On some rare occasions the pixels are white and background is black.

Flippr #1

Polyptych is a 3D interactive installation inspired by generative plotter designs. It is also meant to be displayed as multiple prints taken from different angles, be it a diptych, triptych, tetraptych, or more.

For an example see: https://bgo.la/polyptych.png

Instructions:

- use the mouse to navigate around the piece (zoom, pan and drag)
- press 'c' to switch between multiple camera angles
- press 'space' to pause the animation
- press 'p' to take a screenshot in a custom resolution (always 1:1 ratio) of the current view. Note that taking a screenshot will only work when seeing the piece live (click 'Open live' on fxhash), not on the mint page because of the sandboxed iframe.

Polyptych #1

Another experiment in 3D and vertex shader, this time inspired by the Flow Field aesthetic. Patterns are formed accordingly to different box rotations.

Traits include 3 different modes and different color schemes.

Instructions: 

- use the mouse to zoom and move around
- press 'c' to go back to the original frame
- press 'space' to pause the animation
- press 'p' to print in a custom resolution (only works on 'Open live').

Twistr #1

Frequência is a 3D interactive installation, each object can be seen as a 2D drawing from multiple perspectives or as an animated object in 3D. It is a continuation of the concepts I explored in my works "Harmonium" and "Polyptych".

Available in multiple color schemes and different synthesis modes.

Instructions:

- use the mouse to navigate (zoom, pan and drag)
- press 'c' to switch between multiple camera angles
- press 'b' to pause the animation
- press 'p' to download the current view it in a custom resolution (always 3:4 ratio). Note that taking a screenshot will only work when seeing the piece live (click 'Open live' on fxhash), not on the mint page because of the sandboxed iframe of fxhash.

The Hall of Mirrors, a 3D installation using vertex shader and digital feedback.
Inspired by Kraftwerk's song and old house of mirrors funfair attractions from my childhood.

Instructions:
- use the mouse to navigate (zoom, pan and drag)
- press 'c' to switch between multiple camera angles
- press 'b' to play/pause the animation
- press 'p' to download the current view it in a custom resolution (only in live view).

Experiments in textures and deconstructing the 2D/3D perspective.

Instructions:
- use the mouse to navigate (zoom, pan and drag)
- press 'c' to switch between multiple camera angles
- press 'b' to switch on/off the background color (in case you want to print it)
- press 'p' to download the current view it in a custom resolution (only in live view).

Experimenting with GL_LINES, instanced geometries and 3d flows.

Instructions:

- use the mouse to navigate (zoom, pan and drag)
- press 'c' to switch between multiple camera angles
- press 'p' in 'Open live' to download the current view it in a custom resolution. This usually results in better quality for prints.

Happy New fxYear :)

Isometric illusions.

Instructions:
- 'c' for changing perspective
- 'a' and 's' to slow down or speed up the animation
- 'b' to stop all animation
- 'p' to download in a custom resolution
- use the mouse to zoom in / out and move the perspective

This work is the result of a collaboration between @bgola and jkuriki (https://jkuriki.com.br).

To pass time while in meetings or just trying to solve a problem I like to sketch on my notebook continuous abstract lines, usually following a short pattern without paying too much attention to the process. 

In this project I take this to the extreme in a generative approach. The resulting image is one continuous line imperfectly repeating the same pattern for a minute. You can travel back in time and zoom in to explore all layers.

Instructions:

- use the mouse to navigate (zoom, pan and drag)
- press 'c' to switch between multiple camera angles
- press 't' to switch time travel mode (use your mouse to go back in time)
- press 'p' in 'Open live' to download the current view it in a custom resolution. This usually results in better quality for prints.
